Under the Government Level 5 Plan for living for the rest of October and all November we will not be meeting up for group boules in St. Anne's Park.  

If you wish to practice yourself or with one other that may be okay.  The following are a couple of photos from our play last Wednesday 21st Oct 2020 before the announcement of Level 5 restrictions.

The pistes are becoming worse by the day and while challenging they are almost not fit for purpose.

I'll re-send the letter to D.C.C. to try to elicit a response for the long delayed upgrade.

Bye for now!!

The following photos are courtesy of Nigel.  We are continuing to play wearing masks and distancing.  Yvonne kindly supplies coffee and treats at the bench afterwards.  We used the remaining funds to support her coffee purchasing. Being social and active outdoors brings its benefits despite the terrible condition of the pistes.  Some manage the conditions better than others but the mud/water at the end of two pistes affect play badly.  

Tony and Mike have met with the new park supervisor and Tom has e-mailed the relevant city engineer to check on the status of the promised upgrade of the facility.  Fingers crossed.

Nigel and his wife, Vivienne, and Eileen and Tom Donnellan were involved in a semi-final match in Alden Park.  Nigel and Vivienne overcame Eileen and Tom in a keenly contested game to progress to the final.

Hoping all the members of the Wednesday Group are staying safe and well and keeping spirits up.
